My courtyard shelter

In order to catch the train, Tan Aifang and her family stayed for less than half an hour before leaving. As soon as the aunt sent them out of the door, she turned around and looked through the "New Year's goods".

"Mom, this bag of flour is estimated to be five or six pounds. I will make dumplings for you during the New Year." The aunt was very happy.

"Miaomiao, what kind of dumplings do you want to eat?" Grandma touched her granddaughter's head.

The little cousin smacked her lips: "Grandma, I want to eat seafood dumplings, put dried vegetables, shrimps and mushrooms in it, it must be delicious."

"Little girl, you are quite picky." The aunt laughed and scolded.

"Aren't there some shrimps left at home? When Aimin and Bangxiang come back, we will make seafood dumplings." Grandma said stubbornly.

Aimin is Tan Aifang's younger brother.

Tan Bangxiang is the eldest nephew. He just turned seventeen last year. Since he dropped out of high school, he has been working outside with his father Tan Aimin.

"Seafood dumplings, seafood dumplings..." the little cousin cheered.

Aunt continued to look through the New Year's goods and soon made a new discovery: "Mom, there is a bag of dried fish here. The previous ones have not been eaten yet, and the eldest sister sent them to you again."

"Alas, Aifang's family is not easy either."

"Mom, you just like to fantasize. The eldest sister's family will receive a package every few days, all sent from Yanjing, and it is probably all food. Aunt envied.

"Who did you hear it from?" Grandma asked curiously.

"Jingyi let it slip last time, so you can rest assured. The eldest sister's family lives a good life, at least they don't have to worry about food and drink."

As soon as the aunt finished speaking, she exclaimed:

"Mom, what do you see here? ”

Grandma’s eyesight was not good, but the little cousin was quick and grabbed a handful of fish balls and stuffed them into her mouth:

“Wow, it’s meatballs, so delicious!”

It was too late for the aunt to stop her. She was so distressed that she had to pinch her daughter’s arm hard, cursing:

“You dead girl, you are really a starving ghost reincarnated. You have ruined all the good things.”

“Let her eat, Miaomiao, come to grandma.” Grandma quickly pulled her granddaughter to her side.

“Grandma, my mother pinched me.” The little cousin said aggrievedly, while her little mouth was still chewing hard.

“You still have the face to cry, there are only more than 20 meatballs in total, and you finished four or five at once.” The aunt said angrily.

Grandma gently rubbed the place where her granddaughter was pinched, which was a little purple, and she couldn’t help but toughen up:

“The child is still so young, you are really, why are you using so much strength? These foods are all given to me by Aifang and her husband. I will give them to whoever I want. "

"Mom, don't get angry, I was just confused for a moment!" Aunt laughed.

Now the old lady has a high status in the family. She usually doesn't dare to talk back easily, for fear that the old lady will move to her eldest sister's house in anger, which would be a big loss.

"Okay, go make breakfast, I'll keep the food first, and come to me if you need anything later. "

My aunt glanced at the things on the table reluctantly and hurried to the kitchen.

…

At half past eight, Xu Jingyi and her parents boarded the high-speed train to Yanjing. The family of three sat in a row, and she sat by the window.

Three hours later, the train just passed Quancheng, and it was time for lunch.

The train does not provide lunch, nor does it have a snack cart. The only things it can provide are boiled water and heating services.

Tan Aifang opened her bag and took out a large stainless steel lunch box from it. This was the lunch she prepared last night.

"Dabin, wake up..."

"What's wrong?" Xu Bin rubbed his eyes.

"It's almost twelve o'clock. Take the lunch box to the dining car to heat it up." Tan Aifang ordered.

Xu Bin took the lunch box, took the five yuan heating fee from his wife, and got up and went to the dining car.

There were quite a lot of people heating up their meals. While waiting in line, an old man in front of him took the initiative to chat with him.

"Which stop are you getting off, brother? "

"The final stop is Yanjing, what about you, brother?" Xu Bin asked back.

The old man smiled and said, "Like you, I am also going to Yanjing."

"It's fate, brother, are you alone?"

"No, I am with my wife. We are going to Yanjing to join our son." The old man said proudly.

"Did your son get a hukou in the capital?" Xu Bin said enviously.

Originally, he had a great chance to get a hukou in the capital, but unfortunately he wasted it. Instead, it was my sister's family who soared from then on.

"He got it at the end of last year. He is a professor at Anhui Agricultural University. He was transferred to Yanjing to work in May last year. Now he has finally settled down."

"Congratulations!" Xu Bin hurriedly congratulated.

"It's nothing. It's just a settlement. I don't know when I will have to wait to buy a house!" The old man said modestly.

"It's already amazing. Where will you two live after you go there? Will you rent a house? "Xu Bin asked curiously.

The old man looked pleased: "My son has applied for a public rental housing, with an area of ​​100 square meters, so he can definitely live there."

"Great, it's usually hard to apply for such a large area." There are also public rental housing in Luyang, so Xu Bin is certainly familiar with it.

"It's mainly because their unit is good. What about you, brother? What business are you doing in Yanjing this time?"

"Uh uh... I'm going to Yanjing to see my parents."

Xu Bin was somewhat embarrassed. The old man was not much older than him, but one of them went to "join" his son, and the other went to "join" his parents. How embarrassing.

The old man asked curiously: "Brother, are you from Yanjing? Your accent doesn't sound like it."

"My parents help take care of the children at my brother's house. They bought a house in Yanjing three years ago." Xu Bin said lightly.

"No wonder, your brother is really lucky. I heard that the amount of food rations in the capital is the highest in the country, and there is no need to worry about water outages. Now many people want to settle down but can't."

"Their family has always been lucky." Xu Bin echoed sourly.

"Brother, have you ever thought about moving there?"

Without waiting for Xu Bin to answer, the old man said earnestly:

"Brother, I'll tell you the truth. If you have the conditions, go to Yanjing as soon as possible. At the very least, you have to settle down in the coastal areas. The inland areas will be more and more difficult the later you go."

Xu Bin nodded: "When the child graduates from college next year, we will move to Yanjing. At worst, we can rent a house first."

"The rent in Yanjing is not cheap. It's better to squeeze in with your brother." The old man advised.

"It doesn't matter. When the time comes, we can sell the old house. At least we can sell it for a few million. We don't need this rent money." Xu Bin said confidently.

"Are you not going to buy a house in Yanjing?"

"No." Xu Bin shook his head. "We only have one daughter in our family. It's not that we can't get married. There's no need."

In fact, Xu Bin had already made up his mind. His grandfather's company was getting bigger and bigger, and Jingyi's future would be left to her grandfather.

The couple had limited abilities, and they couldn't help much even if they wanted to!

"That's true."
